Rugby World Cup

The most coveted prize in Rugby Union returnswith the Rugby World Cup. In this 10th edition of the Rugby World Cup, 20 nations will battle it across nine venues throughout France to claim the Webb Ellis trophy and write themselves in Rugby Union history. Over six weeks, 48 matches will be played, with the final being held at the Stade de France in Paris. The tournament will stage four pools, with five teams in each pool. Each nation will play one another in the pool, and the two nations with the most points will move on to the quarter-finals. From there, it is knockout Rugby. The quickest backs and toughest forwards will be put on the centre stage, aiming to take their country to the final.

Handicap Rugby World Cup Betting

Handicap betting involves giving a certain team a hypothetical deficit or a head start. In the Rugby World Cup, there will be teams with a better chance of winning due to their players' profile and experience in the World Cup. For this reason, handicap betting is a way to extend the odds. At LiveScore Bet, we base our handicap odds on the match score, so the favourite will be given a negative handicap, and the underdog will have a positive handicap. For example, if Team A are the favourites to win, they may have a handicap of -7.5. They would need to beat Team B by more than 7.5 points. In rugby terms, that could be a try and one penalty converted. If you were to bet on Team A and they won, but it was less than 7.5 points, you wouldn't win the bet.

Total Points Rugby World Cup Betting

Betting on the total points scored during a Rugby World Cup game means that you are betting on how many points will be scored by both teams. In these types of bets, the odds are based on whether the game will finish under or over a particular amount of points.

Rugby World Cup Winner Bets

At LiveScore Bet, we allow you to bet on the winner of all 48 games being played at the Rugby World Cup. You can back the favourite or use your Rugby knowledge to predict an underdog triumph. And if you think there is nothing between the two teams, we allow you to bet on the game ending in a draw.

Rugby World Cup Betting

Doing your research before making bets at the Rugby World Cup gives you a better chance of winning your bets. Before the tournament starts, study the current and historical form of the teams. Analysing previous results of teams playing each other during the pool stage may give you a better chance of making a correct prediction. Consider the style of play when making winner and total point predictions.

Some teams may utilise their forwards and play a defensive kicking game, whilst others may have strong runners in the back line. Considering the team's playing style, tactics, and opposition will help determine how many tries are scored come the final kick. If a team has a reliable kicker who is more likely to convert their penalties, this will also give that team a likely shot of winning and scoring more points. Lastly, analyse what each team needs to reach the quarter-finals. At the Rugby World Cup, teams are given bonus points for scoring four tries or more, which will be an incentive for some teams, especially if they need the points to make their way out of the pool.
